李延应用泽泻汤合温胆汤治疗舒张压高的临床经验

随着社会的发展,人类生活方式的改变,高血压病越来越高发,具有低龄化趋势,代谢综合征常伴随发生,此种情况下的高血压往往是以舒张压升高为主,临床表现常与“亚健康”状态混淆,未能引起患者甚至部分医生的重视,然而事实上越来越多的科学研究证实舒张压高之危害十分明显,不容忽视。尽管现代医学对舒张压高的病因及病理机制有明确的阐述,但是暂时没有特效的药物。李延教授在治疗高血压病方面有着丰富的临床经验,临床中运用泽泻汤合温胆汤加减治疗舒张压高之眩晕,切中病机,加减灵活,屡有良效。文中从中医角度阐述舒张压高的病因病机,介绍李师辨病辨证思路,组方用药特点,附三则典型验案,另加个人心得体会,以期为舒张压高的有效治疗提供思路。     

Impaired postural control in patients affected by tension-type headache

Sixteen subjects, affected by chronic tension-type headache (TTH) accordingly to the International Headache Society Classification (1988) criteria, in presence of tenderness in pericranial muscles,with a mean age of 37+/-11.8 years, and ten healthy volunteer subjects, age and sex matched, were submitted to postural analysis by Static Posturography (S.Ve.P. Amplaid). Aim of the study was to evaluate whether patients with TTH have disturbed postural control, as compared to normal subjects. Postural analysis considered all posturographic variables but focused on spectral frequency analysis of body sway. In both open (OE) and closed eyes (CE) condition, spectral frequency analysis showed a significantly increased body sway at low (OE= p < or = 0.01; CE= p < or = 0.01) and middle (OE= p < or = 0.01; CE= p < or = 0.01) frequencies on the antero-posterior (y) plane and at low frequencies (OE= p < or = 0.05; CE= p < or = 0.05) on the lateral (x) plane. Statistical analysis was performed using the Student's t test for unpaired data, p value 0.05 defined significant. The proprioceptive input seems to be predominant at middle and high frequencies in maintaining posture, our results seem then to suggest a proprioceptive disturbance in TTH patients. The disturbance is likely related to chronic pericranial muscle contraction and tenderness. Posturography and spectral analysis may help not only in the diagnosis of a postural disturbance but even more in the follow-up of TTH patients, during and after a medical and/or a rehabilitative treatment.     

Wertigkeit der EKG-Telefon-Telemetrie in der Erfassung symptomatischer Herzrhythmus-Störungen

Summary The ECG-telephone-transmission (TTM) was used to record an ECG-strip during a typical symptomatic period in patients complaining of symptoms possibly caused by arrhythmias (palpitations, dizziness, paroxysm tachycardia, pulse irregularities; angina and dyspnea only if other reasons could be excluded). Patients complaining of syncope only were not admitted, because of the inability to make a telephon call successfully during such a symptomatic period. The ECG was transmitted to the CCU using a frequency modulation technique. In 60% of 196 patients an ECG-TTM could be achieved during a typical symptomatic period, whereas arrhythmias as cause for the symptoms could be excluded in 51 patients (26%). The remaining 66 patients (34%) demonstrated various arrhythmias ranging from simple SVPB and PVC to total AV-block and sustained VT.TTM, an easy-to-perform and cost-effective method allowed a successful ECG registration during a symptomatic period in almost two-thirds of symptomatic patients. In these patients arrhythmias could be verified or excluded as cause of the symptoms.

CLINICO-PATHOLOGIC CONFERENCE: 12-YEAR-OLD GIRL WITH FATIGUE, ANEMIA, WEIGHT LOSS, ABDOMINAL DISTENTION, AND OCCASIONAL NAUSEA AND VOMITING

A clinicopathologic case is presented. The patient was a 12-year-old white girl with a history of fatigue and dizziness, occasional nausea and vomiting, and anemia, who showed abdominal distention, especially in the epigastrium. An epigastric mass was palpable. Gastroscopy was done, and surgery followed. Pertinent laboratory findings are presented, and clinical discussion follows. The pathology is then presented and discussed.     

Assessing vestibular function: which tests, when?

Vertigo and dizziness are common complaints encountered in clinical practice. The patient’s history and a thorough otoneurological evaluation are essential for identifying the specific pathology behind the patient’s complaints. If the patient reports an illusion of movement (vertigo), this most likely indicates an imbalance within the vestibular system. A sensation of rotatory movement together with a spontaneous nystagmus suggests a lesion involving the semicircular canals, while an illusion of linear movement indicates a disturbance of the otoliths. Nystagmus of central origin or caused by a peripheral vestibular lesion can usually be distinguished by other features in the history or on clinical examination. While peripheral vestibular lesions usually lead to a mixed horizontal-torsional or vertical-torsional nystagmus, a pure vertical or pure torsional nystagmus is always caused by a central lesion. With simple bedside tests such as head-shaking nystagmus and rapid head impulses deficits in labyrinthine function can clearly be detected. For a more thorough investigation of vestibular function at the level of individual semicircular canals and the otoliths, modern techniques are now available such as three-dimensional eye movement vector analysis for the evaluation of individual semicircular canal function, measurement of the subjective visual vertical for utricular, and click-evoked myogenic potentials for saccular testing.

Transmastoid approach to the superior semicircular canal: An anatomical study

ObjectiveWe examined the anatomic features of the top of the superior semicircular canal (SSC) to help guide the surgeon considering resurfacing or plugging of an associated dehiscence, thorough the transmastoid (TM) approach.Methods19 selected cadaveric temporal bones, which had no supralabyrinthine tract, were dissected, and distances between the SSC and various structures within the temporal bone were measured with a, fine caliper.ResultsThe average distances from the sino-dural angle, horizontal canal top, and subacurate artery, to the top of the SSC were 31.1, 7.8, and 3.9 mm, within a small range. 7 (36.8%) out of 19 bones with a, low hanging tegmen needed a wide exposure and elevation of the dura to access the SSC top.ConclusionKnowledge of the anatomical details associated with the SSC from this study may help to, access the SCC dehiscence safely for resurfacing surgery via a TM approach.
